REVIEW: Figures – Chronos (EP)

If there’s one word to describe what I’m feeling when listening to Chronos, it’s probably “mmkay”. Perhaps it’s the sweltering heat the UK has been slapped with that’s made me apathetic, I feel like I should like Figures more but I just can’t give much shits about them.

Chronos is a pretty decent EP and is won’t say otherwise. It’s well written, well rehearsed and well produced, and definitely deserves your money if they what you’re into. Unfortunately I just don’t dig it. Personally I’d like to hear more of Mark’s screaming, just because I think that’s what he’s stronger at. His cleans are pretty on point but I’m a death metal lass at heart and I’ll always prefer to hear screams. Each member suits the style admirably. There’s a good mix of melodic and heavy which is properly executed.

I don’t feel like I can fairly say much else on account of my personal tastes so I’ll keep this one to a minimum.

In short, they’re a good band that work hard but I’m not a fan. Sorry guys and gal.

P.S. Also, kudos for not making a huge deal about there being a vagina in your lineup.
